So another week of fashion and something is always happening, even if people tell you otherwise.

Azzedine Alaia is getting his name back. It’s not that he ever lost it, Prada are just nice enough to give it back to him. Did we say give? We meant sell.

Donatella Versace wants to be the one dressing the Spice Girls for their upcoming tour. So much so she’s already designed outfits that will cost us to US$400,000. Ticket prices are likely to rise.

We’ve learnt that some people will strip down to their bare essentials to get free clothing. We’ve also learnt it’s seldom a pretty sight.

James Piatt has released what he calls the Persuader. It’s a machine gun shaped handbag. Buy one for all the friends you don’t like. Not because it’s ugly, but because in the post 11 September world they’re likely to be shot for carrying one.

What do Scarlet Jo and Mikhail Gorbachev have in common? Find out here.

Favourite things from trends for this week:
Christian Lacroix for La Redoute ‘Falbala’ coat
Heidi Klum in black and white
Paris Hilton in Shiny Jeans

Be sure to vote!

This news could prove disastrous to all the fashion weeks around the world.

In other LV news Lindsay Lohan has been dumped.

Finally, the Scotsman has decreed that following fashion is bad for your health. We’d like to decree that not following it is bad for your sex life.

Late one Oxford night Daniel P Dykes set about creating a fashion publication that would go someway to being an arbiter on fashion as it appeals to the emerging power generations: those who don't remember a world without the Internet and for whom work plays second fiddle to pleasure. And so Fashionising.com was born as a publication for those who were focussed not just on fashion's trends, but on society's too, and how those trends could all go to heighten the art of living. Hence, Daniel sees a future where, for those young at heart, both fashion and style are grounded in traditional quality, but with a youthful, sensualised edge. Daniel is Fashionising.com's Editor in Chief and Chairman.
